about

In the times of antiquity and the early middle ages, the Germanic tribes were not an entirely settled people. While not nomads, the Germanic tribes were seemingly not too strongly tied to the places they settled. In the face of famine or foreign invaders, it was not uncommon for entire extended communities to uproot and seek new lands to settle. The transition from late-antiquity to the middle ages was largely characterized in Europe by the migration of a multitude of Germanic tribes to new homes through the ruins of the Western Roman Empire. Even before this period, many of those tribes were in movement during antiquity. The Goths, who moved through the Balkans in the 4th century to eventually form kingdoms in Italy and Spain, may have originated in Sweden only a few centuries earlier, migrating through eastern Europe to the present day Ukraine before entering the Roman Empire. Other tribes, such as the Burgundians and Vandals are believed to have originated from around the Baltic Sea before their long journeys that led them to form kingdoms in Gaul or as far afield as North Africa. Even after these tribes became more settled in the early middle ages, the adventurous spirit to travel far was not extinguished. Heroes such as Sigurd and Beowulf sought out foreign courts where their skills could bring more glory than the quiet halls at home. Mortal men doubtless followed these heroes’ examples, traveling far for glory when war lay far from their own homes.

lyrics

Far too long I’ve lingered in these
Old and fading wooden walls
Longing for the spring to come again
And bring about the thaw

It seems a lifetime, I’ve been confined
In this all too familiar hall
The winds have been a-calling my name
I must soon be moving on

The same old tree outside the door
The same old people drolling on
This place has nothing left for me
But a longing to be free

Wanderlust calls me on
To travel far and leave my home

As I travel winding roads I
Can’t help but let a smile form
An open sky is now the only
Roof a man like me could love

I’ve crossed seas and wandered mountains
But found no place to call my own
I guess a man stricken by wanderlust
Will never find a home
